Data Sheet Broadcom ACHS-712x-DS101 February 28, 2018 Overview The Broadcom ® ACHS-7121/7122/7123 product series is a fully integrated Hall Effect-based isolated linear current sensor device family designed for AC or DC current sensing in industrial, commercial, and communications systems. Each of the ACHS-7121/7122/7123 consists of a precise, low-offset, linear Hall circuit with a copper conduction path located near the surface of the die. Applied current flowing through this copper conduction path generates a magnetic field that the Hall IC converts into a proportional voltage. Device accuracy is optimized through the close proximity of the magnetic signal to the Hall transducer. A precise, proportional voltage is provided by the low-offset, chopper-stabilized CMOS Hall IC, which is programmed for accuracy after packaging. The output of the device has a positive slope (>V OUT(Q) ) when an increasing current flows through the primary copper conduction path (from pins 1 and 2, to pins 3 and 4), which is the path used for current sampling. The internal resistance of this conductive path is 0.7 mΩ typical, providing low-power loss. The terminals of the conductive path are electrically isolated from the signal leads (pins 5 through 8).

Broadcom ACHS-712x-DS101February 28, 2018

OverviewThe Broadcom® ACHS-7121/7122/7123 product series is a fully integrated Hall Effect-based isolated linear current sensor device family designed for AC or DC current sensing in industrial, commercial, and communications systems. Each of the ACHS-7121/7122/7123 consists of a precise, low-offset, linear Hall circuit with a copper conduction path located near the surface of the die. Applied current flowing through this copper conduction path generates a magnetic field that the Hall IC converts into a proportional voltage. Device accuracy is optimized through the close proximity of the magnetic signal to the Hall transducer.

A precise, proportional voltage is provided by the low-offset, chopper-stabilized CMOS Hall IC, which is programmed for accuracy after packaging. The output of the device has a positive slope (>VOUT(Q)) when an increasing current flows through the primary copper conduction path (from pins 1 and 2, to pins 3 and 4), which is the path used for current sampling.

The internal resistance of this conductive path is 0.7 mΩ typical, providing low-power loss. The terminals of the conductive path are electrically isolated from the signal leads (pins 5 through 8). This performance is delivered in a compact, surface mountable, SO-8 package that meets worldwide regulatory safety standards.

Features Wide Operating Temperature: –40ºC to 110ºC Primary conductor resistance: 0.7 mΩ typ. Sensing current range: ±10A, ±20A, and ±30A Output sensitivity: 66 to 185 mV/A Output voltage proportional to AC or DC currents Ratiometric output from supply voltage Single supply operation: 5.0V Low-noise analog signal path Device bandwidth is set via FILTER pin:

Package Characteristics

NOTE:1. Refer to the Definition of Electrical Characteristics in the Application Section of the data sheet.2. Nonlinearity is defined as half of the peak-to-peak output deviation from the best-fit line, expressed as a

percentage of the full-scale output voltage. See the Definition of Electrical Characteristics in the Application Section of the data sheet for the complete definition and formula.

3. Common Mode Transient Immunity is tested by applying a fast rising/falling voltage pulse across pin 4 and GND (pin 5). The output glitch observed is less than 0.2V from the average output voltage for less than 1 μs.

4. Device may be operated at higher primary current levels, IP, provided that the Maximum Junction Temperature, TJ(MAX) is not exceeded.

5. Total output error in percentage is the difference between the measured output voltage at maximum input current (IPMAX) and the ideal output voltage at IPMAX divided by the ideal output voltage at IPMAX. The Total Output Error typical value is based on total output error measured at the point of product release.

6. In accordance with UL 1577, each device is proof tested by applying an insulation test voltage ≥3600VRMS for 1 second.

7. The Input-Output Momentary Withstand Voltage is a dielectric voltage rating that should not be interpreted as an input-output continuous voltage rating.

8. This is a two-terminal measurement: pins 1 through 4 are shorted together and pins 5 through 8 are shorted together.

9. The Broadcom evaluation board has 300 mm2 (total area including top and bottom copper) of 2 oz. copper connected to pins 1 and 2 and pins 3 and 4. Refer to the application section for additional information on thermal characterization.

10. Output Noise is the noise level of the ACHS-7121/7122/7123 expressed in root mean square (RMS) voltage.

Definition of Electrical CharacteristicsThe ACHS-7121/7122/7123 product series is a Hall Effect current sensor that outputs an analog voltage proportional to the magnetic field intensity caused by the current flowing through the input primary conductor. Without the magnetic field, the output voltage is half of the supply voltage. The sensor can detect both DC and AC current.

Ratiometric OutputThe output voltage of the ACHS-7121/7122/7123 series is ratiometric or proportional to the supply voltage. The sensitivity (Sens) of the device and the quiescent output voltage changes when there is a change in the supply voltage (VDD). For example, when the VDD is increased by 10% from 5V to 5.5V in the ACHS-7122, the quiescent output voltage changes from 2.5V to 2.75V and the sensitivity also changes from 100 mV/A to 110 mV/A.

SensitivityThe output sensitivity (Sens) is the ratio of the output voltage (VOUT) over the input current (IP) flowing through the primary conductor. It is expressed in mV/A. When an applied current flows through the input primary conductor, it generates a magnetic field which the Hall IC converts into a voltage. The proportional voltage is provided by the Hall IC which is programmed in the factory for accuracy after packaging. The output voltage has a positive slope when an increasing current flows through pins 1 and 2 to pins 3 and 4. Sensitivity Error (ESENS) is the difference between the measured Sensitivity and the Ideal Sensitivity expressed as a percentage (%).

NonlinearityNonlinearity is defined as half of the peak-to-peak output deviation from the best-fit line (BFL), expressed as a percentage of the full-scale output voltage. The full-scale output voltage is the product of the sensitivity (Sens) and full scale input current (IP).

Figure 11: Nonlinearity Calculation

Zero Current Output VoltageThis is the output voltage of ACHS-7121/7122/7123 when the primary current is zero. Zero current output voltage is half of the supply voltage (VDD/2).

Zero Current Output ErrorThis the voltage difference between the measured output voltage and the ideal output voltage (VDD/2) when there is no input current to the device.

Total Output ErrorTotal output error in percentage is the difference between the measured output voltage at maximum input current (IPMAX) and the ideal output voltage at IPMAX divided by the ideal output voltage at IPMAX.

Power-On TimeThis is the time required for the internal circuitry of the device to be ready during the ramping of the supply voltage. Power on time is defined as the finite time required for the output voltage to settle after the supply voltage reached its recommended operating voltage.

FILTER PinThe ACHS-7121/7122/7123 has a FILTER pin for improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the device. This eliminates the need for an external RC filter for the VOUT pin of the device, which can cause attenuation of the output signal. A ceramic capacitor, CF, can be connected between the FILTER pin to GND.

Application Information

PCB LayoutThe design of the printed circuit board (PCB) should follow good layout practices, such as keeping bypass capacitors close to the supply pin and use of ground and power planes. A bypass capacitor must be connected between pins 5 and 8 of the device. The layout of the PCB can also affect the common-mode transient immunity of the device due to stray capacitive coupling between the input and output circuits. To obtain maximum common-mode transient immunity performance, the layout of the PCB should minimize any stray coupling by maintaining the maximum possible distance between the input and output sides of the circuit and ensuring that any ground or power plane on the PCB does not pass directly below or extend much wider than the body of the device.

Land Pattern for 4 mm Board CreepageFor applications that require PCB creepage of 4 mm between input and output sides, the land pattern in Figure 12 can be used.

Thermal ConsiderationThe evaluation board used in the thermal characterization is shown in Figure 16. Inputs IP+ and IP– are each connected to input plane of 2 oz. copper with 300 mm2 total area (including top and bottom planes). The output side GND is connected to a ground plane of 2 oz. copper with 460 mm2 total area (including top and bottom planes). The 2 oz. copper enables the board to conduct higher current and achieve good thermal distribution in a limited space.
